Channellock 6.5-inch V-Jaw Tongue & Groove Pliers — 412

Unique V-jaw design creates multiple contact points on round pipes and fittings for superior grip compared to standard straight jaw pliers
Compact 6.5-inch length fits tight engine compartments where full-size tongue and groove pliers cannot maneuver effectively
PERMALOCK? fastener eliminates nut and bolt failure maintaining joint strength under high torque required for seized automotive fittings
Laser-hardened 90-degree teeth bite deep into fasteners preventing slippage on oil-covered radiator hoses and corroded pipe connections
Forged USA high-carbon steel with rust-resistant coating withstands exposure to coolant, brake fluid, and harsh under-hood environments

Maximum (0.94″)	Radiator drain plugs, water pump housing bolts, small oil filter housings, oxygen sensors	Compact size accesses tight spaces larger pliers can0t reach
